So TR is a RFA next summer? I thought it was two years out? It will be very difficult for Boston to match with all the big contracts

Yep, Rozier is an RFA next year when Irving is a potential UFA. I see Ainge moving Rozier by the deadline IF he can get Kyrie to sign an extension.

How sure are we that he's good? His numbers kind of fell back down to earth in that Cleveland series

51 if you include Fournier. With Isaac, Bamba and Ball still on their rookie deals and nobody outside of AG (probably) signed to big money past that. That’s why I think we move Ross and Vuc expirings now and don’t mind taking on Deng. Also looking for any FA we sign this summer to be 1 or 2 year deals. Then, the summer of 2020 will be real fun! Core of Ball/Isaac/Gordon/Bamba and a ton of cap space to attract multiple big money FAs.

51 with Evan WOW.. interesting scenario definitely. Guess we shall see what happens.

Fournier has a player option that summer. DJ comes off the books though. Unfortunately, the FA crop that summer is subpar; 2021 is better (headlined by Giannis and Oladipo). 

Yes money is great, and everyone will have it, but we REALLY need to show that we can be competitive to enter the discussion with anyone significant. We've got 2 years to show promise and growth.

Then go all in for Terry Rozier that summer

That summer I believe there could be bigger fish to fry.. IF my memory is correct or 2021

If we have lonzo, Isaac, Gordon, Bamba and they all pan out we won't have money anyway.

We will definitely show growth by then I'm 100 percent sure of that. 2021 is a very good free agency

Ideally they all pan out for us. Would be GREAT

no sure thing in this league. 

 

Ball/Fournier/AG/Isaac/Bamba is a good core. Not perfect but it's got serious potential.

speaking it into existence.

Ranking all the point guards we've talked about (even the unlikely ones) my preference is probably

Kemba

Bledsoe

McCollum

Fultz

Lonzo

Brogdon

Dragic

Delon wright

Rozier (the player)

Teague

Fred VanVleet

Marcus smart

Tyus Jones

Exum

Dinwiddie

Shabazz

Satoransky

The combination of a couple vets on cheap one year deals to provide enough stability as a unit with Augustin until we find a better opportunity at the trade deadline or next summer

Rozier (based on the cost to actually get him from Boston)

One of the Chicago point guards that isn't Dunn

Isaiah Thomas

Schroder
